Package: tasque
Version: 0.1.6-1
Severity: minor

I run E17 without a system tray, so when I want to show my tasque window I
click on the tasque icon in the menu.  

Tasque (correctly) detects a running tasque instance, and that instance shows
itself on the current desktop, and the new instance exits with a return code
of 255 and prints the following message:
[Debug]: Tasque is already running.  Exiting...

Unfortunately e17 (correctly from my view) detects that the application failed
to start and shows a dialog to this effect.

Tasque really should not return an error code in this case (the debug message
is fine).

As a user, it seems to me like tasque started correctly (window appeared -
that's what I wanted), a running process in the background is irrelevant to
me.  (As a software developer it seems strange to return an error when there
really isn't any error seems strange - a running process that couldn't be
contacted would be an error).
